Description Chris Kerr 2007-07-11 21:28:52 UTC 
Having just started my third compile of openoffice 2.2.1 (see bug #163881 for more details), it struck me that it would be a good idea if there was an option to install a package blocked by collision-protect after a manual review of the clashing files, rather than having to exit and then compile again with FEATURES="-collision-protect" if the files are obviously ones that the package should be allowed to overwrite.

Reproducible: Always
